The 50 Best Restaurants in the World 2015

Posted on June 3, 2015 by Jamie Brady   comments

 

Every year the list of the "World's 50 Best Restaurants," presented by S. Pellegrino and Acqua Panna, is announced by the UK magazine, Restaurant. Throughout the year, a who's who of the restaurant industry rates and votes for the winners. The 14th annual Best Restaurants list was just announced at an event in London on June 1st.

Most of the 50 ranked restaurants exemplify haute cuisine - characterized by intense and artistic preparation and presentation of the food. The list also also features many examples of gastronomic experimentation, in addition to rewarding chefs carrying on traditional techniques at the top of their game. Most, but not all, ranked restaurants are formal, so be sure to bring appropriate attire when traveling if you plan to visit. But due to their popularity, especially after being placed on this prestigious list, reservations are almost always required and only available WELL in advance. Some restaurants shut down for several months each year for vacations and/or close to renovate or reinvent their menu. If reservations are not available during the dates of your trip, contact the restaurant with your trip dates and ask to be put on their waitlist.

The top of the list saw many of the same winners as last year. The highest placing new entrant came in at #23. 10 new restaurants cracked the list this year. We had already added the other restaurants that placed on the list last year on Xploritall. You can find and add them to your travel wishlist, and if you were lucky enough to have dined at one of these establishments, you can mark that you've visited. We will be adding the new list placers in the next week, so check back to find those soon. We will also be revising the "50 Best Restaurants" badge to reflect the current list. Don't worry - if you already earned the badge you will still have it, even if a restaurant you visited is no longer in the current Best 50 Restaurants List.
